User:ERASWK/UN Special

UNSpecial is the monthly magazine of international civil servants working in the United Nations system in Geneva, mainly from the United Nations Office at Geneva (UNOG) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

Its first issue appeared in October 1949. Since then, for more than 60 years it has published 11 issues per year, on average 50 pages, and embodied both the United Nations’ cooperation between people of all backgrounds and its capacity to adjust to changing circumstances. The magazine has not lost sight of its overall objective: being for and about the United Nations and its international civil servants.

A key contribution of a magazine such as UN Special is that it opens windows to international organizations, diplomatic missions, academia and various other entities in order to promote mutual understanding and foster synergy in the work covered by their respective mandates.

Thus, UN Special offers dialogue and reflection to renew a spirit of cooperation and humanitarianism, not only for international Geneva, but also worldwide.

The magazine functions on a voluntary basis, representing the joint efforts of staff of the United Nations, the World Health Organisations, and other international organizations and agencies based in Geneva.
